This person is badly wanted by somebody. Wanted badly enough that they are willing to pay a large sum of money to whoever brings in this person. They often don't care if this person arrives dead or alive. The bounty is usually offered by either The Law or a criminal. Or both. This person (and the price) will often feature on a "Wanted!" Poster. The price will usually attract Bounty Hunters. If said bounty hunters end up with a bounty on their own head, see Contract on the Hitman and The Hunter Becomes the Hunted. Compare Demanding Their Head when someone literally puts a bounty on a severed head, or Bringing Back Proof for requiring other evidence of death. Examples |

In The Witchlands, the Big Bad Raider King has an ever-rising bounty on his head (literally on his head, as delivering it is a requirement in the contract). Unfortunately for everyone involved, he's a master of Assassin Outclassin'. | |

Samurai Jack: Aku placed a price on Jack's head, said to be a googolplex in Season 1. In one episode, he had to deal with bounty hunter after bounty hunter. In another episode, he encounters another character who also had a price on his head placed by Aku and after their initial clash, they worked together to deal with the bounty hunters going after them in that episode. | |

In John Wick: Chapter 2, after John honours Santino D'Antonio's marker, Santino promptly puts a price on his head, and eventually doubles it as John cuts a bloody swathe through everyone who tries to collect. The consequences of this continue into Chapter Three and beyond. | |

Played with further in the fourth film, where one lone tracker simply calling himself "Nobody" attempts to extract a bigger bounty on John's head than what's posted in order to cross his retirement threshold. To help his bargaining power, he kills other assassins trying to get John first and even directly spares him until he can properly negotiate his terms with the High Table. When The Marquis attempts to shortchange Nobody by increasing the bounty to above their agreement, Nobody screws him back by helping Wick survive. | |

On Star Trek: Enterprise, Captain Archer escapes a life sentence on the Klingon gulag Rura Penthe. Later in the season, it's revealed that the Klingons have put a price on his head. After he escapes a capture attempt, it likely goes up. And then it's revealed that after he saved several of his crew from being sold into slavery by the Orion Syndicate, they put a price on his head as well. | |

Axton is wanted for "war crimes" and has $5,000,000,000 as a reward, Zer0 is wanted for "Political Assassination" at $32,000,000,000, Salvador is wanted for "manslaughter, theft, arson, destruction of property, trespassing, cannibalism, public indecency and profanity at $99,000,000,000.99, and Maya is wanted for being a Siren at $720,000,000,000. | |

Eventually the Bernadelli Insurance Corporation declares him a "human act of God" to avoid paying claims on the damage he causes, incidentally cancelling the bounty. | |

In the first issue of Batman: Gotham Adventures, a wealthy philanthropist's son is murdered by the Joker. Grief-stricken, he announces a fifty-million dollar reward to the first person who puts the clown in the ground, once and for all. The whole city goes crazy trying to collect on the bounty, so Batman eventually decides to put the man and the Joker together in one room, telling him that if wants the Joker dead, he'll have to do it with his own hands. The philanthropist's humanitarian nature overcomes his vengeful urges, and he rescinds the bounty, just as Batman predicted he would. | |

Cowboy Bebop: Every one of the fugitives that Jet and Spike are chasing has this as an incentive for the heroes to catch them. It rarely works out. Note that unlike most examples of this trope, the bounties are established as only being paid if a fugitive is delivered alive and unharmed. For the Bebop crew, this means that a lot of bounties end up either dying or the police find ways to weasel out of paying (like when a bounty turned out to be an AI- the cops claimed that the bounty was not valid due to not being human). | |

Tolkien's Legendarium: Beren and Lúthien: After becoming an outlaw, Beren does such a good job at harassing the Morgoth's forces overrunning his homeland that the Dark Lord sets a price upon his head no less than the price upon the head of the High King of the Noldor. Even so, the Orcs fled rather at the rumour of his approach than sought him out. The Fall of Gondolin: Tuor becomes an outlaw after escaping Lorgan, starting a one-man-army guerrilla war. The Easterlings set a great price upon his head, but they did not dare to approach his hideout because they were afraid of the Elves and places formerly inhabited by Elves. |

After clearing 5 invasion missions for one side, the other will put out a hit on your Tenno, represented as a Death Mark similar to the one the Stalker can give upon killing a boss; the Grineer will enlist the Grustrag Three, while the Corpus have Alad V sic his Zanuka pet upon you, and each one only spawns inside their faction-controlled mission nodes (meaning no Zanuka in a Grineer-controlled node, for example). In addition to these, whichever Syndicates you have negative standing with will occasionally send out Eximus Squads to attack you. | |

Black Lagoon: When Roberta first arrives at Roanapur, it doesn't take long for the cartel she's at loggerheads with to realise her true identity. Rather than run a mile, they continue coming after her, attracted by the numerous bounties that have been placed on her head. Needless to say, they do not claim those bounties. During the Hansel and Gretel arc, the titular twins' spree of carnage earns them an $80,000 bounty that has half the city coming after them. When Gretel learns of this from Eta, she simply offers Eta nearly double that to walk away and pretend she never saw her. Unfortunately, Eta's with Revy, who suggests just killing Gretel and taking her money along with the bounty, and Gretel escapes in the ensuing struggle. Ultimately, the twins are killed not for the bounty, but because they royally pissed off Balalaika. |

While this is ten times his offered bid, the auctioneer points out that there's a reward of 50,000 on Fang's head, so unless she's willing to cough up that much... Fang quickly demonstrates that he should have taken the 50. | |

However, the Joker uses this to his advantage by secretly hiring some of Gambol's goons and pretending to be dead while they bring him to Gambol, allowing him to get close enough to assassinate the mobster. | |

The Owl House: Eda has a rather high price on her head, for refusing to join a coven. Eda, being Eda, naturally takes this in stride. Luz, Lilith, and even Hooty later end up with additional bounties as well, as The Day of Unity approaches, and pressures at joining a coven intensify. King is the only one who doesn't get his own dedicated bounty because Emperor Belos mistook him for being Eda's pet dog (which is what ultimately leads to his downfall). | |

Bounties are a regular feature of the Leijiverse. The title characters of both Captain Harlock and Queen Emeraldas have large bounties on their heads, along with their companion Tochiro. Random side characters with bounties also appear from time to time. In an interesting variation, the price is often given as a one-year supply of energy capsules instead of cash. | |

Rebuild World: After Akira goes on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge against the Mega-Corp executive Chloe for stealing from one of his close friends, after Chloe gets to the safety of the city, she puts a 50 billion aurum bounty on his head. What follows is Akira hiding in the wilderness with Carol in her camper/APC hybrid, a massive battle where tank formations and artillery encircle Akira and his team in an ambush (since Akira is a One-Man Army at that point), all culminating in The Siege of his Hunter Gang's Home Base in the slums. This was all part of The Conspiracy to show off that corporation's power by Alice to help it recruit someone, and they pay Akira and the city off. | |

Bounties appear in two forms in Rebel Galaxy: Requests to take out a specific pirate or other target may turn up on mission boards. Operations against pirate fleets or bases can overlap with the second form. The player can also encounter randomly spawned pirates with a bounty attached to them that is collected upon destruction of their ship. |

A Hat in Time: During the Nyakuza Metro's finale, when Hat Kid steals the Time Pieces from Empress, rather than attacking Hat Kid right then and there, Empress instead calls out to the whole Metro that Hat Kid now has a bounty while deliberately letting Hat Kid flee from the shop, and then chases her as Hat Kid desperately runs for her life from a gang of cats and the enraged Empress who is hauling a rocket launcher. | |

One Piece: Within the setting, a pirate's prestige is tied to the size of the bounty the World Government has placed on their head. Likewise, a pirate crew's prestige is indicated by the sum of bounties on all of its current members. The Straw Hat Pirates, for instance, started off with zero bounties, and eventually racked up a total of over three billion berries. Main character Luffy, all by himself, received a bounty of 1.5 billion berries after all of his antics of being a Chaotic Good hero. In general, pirates' bounties are treated similarly to Power Levels, with a pirate's bounty being roughly correlated to how strong they are in a fight, although there are many exceptions. It's noted that in the East Blue, regarded as the weakest of the four Blues, the average bounty is 3 million; a bounty of 10 million or more would be noteworthy. In the first half of the Grand Line, one hundred million or higher is considered exceptional; in the second half, that same number is considered common or weak, and it's hard to surpass three hundred million. It's also noted that any bounty that goes to one billion or over is considered monstrous, even in the New World. As of the Vivre Card datebook releases in September 2021, aside from Luffy, only eleven other people are known to have ever had bounties of one billion or higher — in order, the top six are the late Pirate King Gol D. Roger (5,564,800,000, the highest known to have ever been given), Edward "Whitebeard" Newgate (5,046,000,000 before his death and the second highest ever issued), Kaido "of the Beasts" (4,611,100,000), "Big Mom" Charlotte Linlin (4,388,000,000), "Red-Haired" Shanks (4,048,900,000), and "Blackbeard" Marshall D. Teach (2,247,600,000; later 3,996,000,000 as of chapter 1059), while the five below Luffy are all followers of three of the original Four Emperors — King "The Conflagration" (top-ranked of Kaido's three "Lead Performers"; 1,390,000,000), Marco "The Phoenix" (former First Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates; 1,374,000,000), Queen "The Plague" (second-ranked of Kaido's three "Lead Performers"; 1,320,000,000), Charlotte Katakuri (son of Big Mom; 1,057,000,000) and Jack "The Drought" (lowest of Kaido's three "Lead Performers"; 1,000,000,000). As of chapter 1053, there are now fourteen pirates known to have or have had bounties of one billion or higher. Kaido and Linlin's bounties have apparently been marked as "Inactive" following their defeats, and the bounties of those who defeated them — Luffy, who defeated Kaido, and the duo of Eustass "Captain" Kid and "Surgeon of Death" Trafalgar D. Water Law, who worked together to defeat Linlin — have increased to three billion each. As a consequence, Shanks is now the pirate with the highest known bounty, and the only one higher than Luffy, Kid, and Law. Chapter 1058 reveals that six more people have had their bounties raised to 1 billion or higher — Zoro (1,111,000,000), Jimbei (1,100,000,000), Sanji (1,032,000,000), Buggy (3,189,000,000), Crocodile (1,965,000,000) and Mihawk (3,590,000,000). Chapter 1059 then reveals that Boa Hancock's bounty has increased to 1,659,000,000, more than twenty times its previous amount. |

Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: The Empire has a price on each member's head in Zagin (with 1 Zagin equalling 360 Japanese yen), with Don's always being the lowest. It gets to the point where Captain Marvelous's bounty is listed as "Unlimited Reward" after the events of episode 38 and the death of Warz Gill, while the others' last bounties are 8 million (Gokai Blue), 4 million (Gokai Pink), 3 million (Gokai Yellow), 300 thousand (Gokai Green and Gokai Silver each), and fifty (Navi). Basco ta Jolokia also had a 3 million Zagin bounty on his head before coming to work for Zangyack. His actions in betraying them in episode 43 result in it being reinstated and upped to 10 million, while his monkey partner Sally got a bounty of fifty (the same as Navi's). AkaRed, Marvelous's mentor, had a bounty of at least eight million before his apparent death. |

In "Gambit", Servalan negotiates with a crime boss to have a Federation fugitive captured dead or alive. She offers two million credits but is forced to settle on eight million. However, it's later revealed to be just a ploy to get the crime boss wondering what's so important about this man that Servalan wants dead. |

NYPD Blue: When a Serial Killer murders a wealthy man's daughter, the man offers Simone $1,000,000 to kill him instead of arresting him. Simone doesn't do it but also doesn't report the illegal solicitation of a contract, giving the man some slack over his grief. Later, after the killer is arrested, it is all but stated that the wealthy man pays another man whose daughter was also murdered by the same serial killer (and who was an expert sniper during the Vietnam War) to murder him. The assassin confesses and is willing to pay the penalty but refuses to implicate the wealthy man, who is now paying for the murderer's wife's dialysis at a private clinic. In another episode a numbers runner has had a contract put out on him and Medevoy is assigned to his protection detail. While the numbers runner and his friends stay with Medevoy playing poker (thus giving them an airtight alibi) one of the numbers runner's employees goes out and kills the other man, thus "cancelling" the contract. |

Live A Live: The Wild West chapter's protagonist, the Sundown Kid, has a bounty of $5,000 on his head, dead or alive, which serves as a source of his rivalry with the Bounty Hunter Mad Dog, who wants to claim the bounty and the glory for getting his head. The chapter's ending reveals that, in truth, Sundown anonymously placed the bounty on his own head out of shame over losing his hometown, to give the bounty hunters an incentive to kill him; once he saved the town of Success from the Crazy Bunch, he outgrows such mindset and chooses to continue Walking the Earth and saving people in need. | |

Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus: At one point Neftin Prog offers a bonus for whoever can kill Ratchet: 10,000 bolts (which isn't really a lot, honestly). Ratchet then says that it'd be nice to go a day without getting a price put on his head. Earlier in the same area Neftin says that he wants Ratchet's head on a stake and his robot turned to scrap. | |

The Infinite Loops: Some loopers, such as Pikachu and Anakin Skywalker, are known to put out rewards for non-loopers to find and capture MLEs during loops. Edmond Dantes gets a record breaking bounty on his head in the One Piece universe because everyone assumes that he's a Devil Fruit user who can swim (in reality his supernatural abilities have nothing to do with Devil Fruit). The local loopers are actually stumped at the number. |

John Wick features an underground world of killers and people in need of killing, so this gets passed around a lot: In the first film, Viggo puts a $2,000,000 bounty on John to try and prevent him from killing his son, being prepared to take it to twice that if an assassin is willing to breach the rules of The Continental and kill him on-premises. In John Wick: Chapter 2, after John honours Santino D'Antonio's marker, Santino promptly puts a price on his head, and eventually doubles it as John cuts a bloody swathe through everyone who tries to collect. The consequences of this continue into Chapter Three and beyond. Played with further in the fourth film, where one lone tracker simply calling himself "Nobody" attempts to extract a bigger bounty on John's head than what's posted in order to cross his retirement threshold. To help his bargaining power, he kills other assassins trying to get John first and even directly spares him until he can properly negotiate his terms with the High Table. When The Marquis attempts to shortchange Nobody by increasing the bounty to above their agreement, Nobody screws him back by helping Wick survive. |

The Fall of Gondolin: Tuor becomes an outlaw after escaping Lorgan, starting a one-man-army guerrilla war. The Easterlings set a great price upon his head, but they did not dare to approach his hideout because they were afraid of the Elves and places formerly inhabited by Elves. | |

Mercenaries: Playground Of Destruction: The main characters go into the warzone of North Korea because the UN Peacekeeping force has put a bounty of $100,000,000 on the head of Colonel Song (if captured alive, he's only worth half that dead). They also put out a "Deck of 52" of bounties on a range of his minions. | |

Firefly: Simon and River Tam have prices on their heads as a result of him rescuing her from the Academy. It's not specified how much the Alliance is offering for them, but it is enough to get Jayne to rat them out on Ariel and is enough to get a sadistic Bounty Hunter after them. This causes no end of trouble for the rest of the crew. | |

Wander over Yonder: Lord Hater posts bounties on Wander and Sylvia for his past defeats, even directly hiring some bounty hunters on occasion to collect. This ends up putting him at a disadvantage at one point, as due to being the number one fugitive in the galaxy solely because of Hater’s influence, it qualifies Wander to attend a normally villains-only party, thus giving Hater additional competition. | |

Fallen London: The department of Menace Eradication offers prices on the head of just about any beast out there, intelligent or otherwise, and a few humans to boot. Capture above death in the latter case, since people are known to come back with some ease down in the Neath. The highest bounty of all belongs to the Vake, at four million Echoes, an absurdly high amount of money... and one of the Ambitions is all about claiming this prize. In the end, it turns out the Vake, AKA Mr. Veils, put that prize on his own head because he wanted someone to hunt, and other hunters seemed like the most fun. And it turns out not even the entirety of the Bazaar and its institutions have that much money lying around, so if you turn the head in they have to take out the Tragedy Procedures, and narrowly avoid having to liquidate the entire city by just giving you everything Veils had (and since every Master is rich beyond measure that is a lot of property), plus a few extras to sweeten the deal. | |
